Chapter 216
Isabella gritted her teeth, ready to retort, but as they entered the hotel, they were
greeted by several prominent figures.
“Mr. Shaffer, congratulations.”
“Miss Symons, you are young and promising with a bright future.”
Isabella was confused. These two individuals were the top leaders in the food and
medical industries of Imperia, with a net worth of over 40 billion. They wouldn’t even.
spare a glance at ten Nemotors combined, yet they were calling her “Miss Symons.”
Feeling uneasy, she greeted them politely and followed Seth, refraining from saying a
word for fear of ruining Seth’s image.
After the two prominent figures mentioned that they would go in first, she quietly asked
Seth, “Mr. Shaffer, what kind of event is this? Please tell me something so I can be
\prepared.”

“It’s a minor matter. Why do you need to prepare? Can’t you handle it on the spot?” Seth

Isabella twitched the corner of her mouth, held her breath, and continued to play along.
She had initially thought it was a brand launch event, but after a few steps, she realized
it was something else entirely.
The people entering were all individuals she had only seen at the 60th-anniversary
celebration of the Shaffer Group. Each one of them commanded respect, and no one
could afford to invite such a lineup for their launch event.
As she wondered, her gaze swept across the room, and her eyes widened.
Yuri?
The woman was dressed extravagantly and covered in jewelry. She was wearing four or
five rings while looking out of place in the city.
As soon as Isabella saw her, Yuri also noticed her.

Unlike the daytime confrontations during the meeting, as soon as Yuri saw Isabella, she
hurriedly lifted her gown and ran over.
“Miss Symons.”
She was puzzled, wondering what Yuri was up to, but Yuri didn’t get the chance to get
close as she was stopped by Seth’s bodyguard.
Many people around them looked over. Seth remained calm and led Isabella inside.
Isabella didn’t say anything more, lifted her gown, and followed Seth’s pace.
She was still wondering what kind of event it was when she followed Seth into the
elevator. As soon as they stepped out, they were greeted with a chorus of greetings.
On the 17th floor, in the super-large conference room, a row of words were written
above the golden door-‘Inauguration Ceremony of the President of Nemotors.”
Isabella’s brain stopped functioning for a moment. She tried to widen her eyes, but her
first reaction was that she had misread it.

Her heart pounded like a drum, and her breathing became difficult. She stood next to
Seth, unable to move for a long time.
“Have you never seen the world before?” Seth’s sarcastic voice reached her ears.
Isabella was petrified; her neck turned stiffly, and she stared blankly at Seth.
Seth said, “You have ten minutes to prepare your inauguration speech. If you dare to
embarrass me, I’ll throw you into the moat.”

She clung to Seth’s arm as if it were a lifeline. “Mr. Shaffer, are you joking with me?”
Seth glanced at her with a mix of mockery, speechlessness, and amusement. “What do
you think?”
Just then, a prominent figure from the machinery manufacturing industry passed by
and nodded at Isabella. “Miss Symons, congratulations.”

Isabella took a deep breath, finally believing it. She licked her lips with her chest
heaving and stared at Seth. “Mr. Shaffer, I’m not prepared…”
“I didn’t tell you for a reason. It’s to test your ability to improvise. If you were prepared,
why bother with this setup?” Seth hummed, his tone natural, without any trace of
acting.
Isabella patted her chest, mentally preparing herself on the spot.
Seth stood beside her, mercilessly urging her, “Eight minutes left.”

Isabella was on the verge of tears, almost going wild with nervousness. She had given
countless speeches and guided meetings as a chief secretary, but this was different.
